Middle Age Family, Fun, and Old School Stuff

Let me start by saying, I have only watched one other season of Dancing with the stars. The one with Emmitt Smith. I lived in the Dallas Metro area for 9 years, Frisco Texas, and came to love the Cowboys. Smith was in his heyday while I was there. So when Emmitt was on Dancing With the Stars I had to watch. I figured it would be 2 maybe 3 weeks then he would be gone. I don’t really watch any reality shows, other than Run’s House and Salt&Pepa. I actually looked forward to watching the show each week. My wife got into as well and it became a topic of conversation for us all through the week. When Emmitt actually won, it was a great wrap up to what had been a fun run for my wife and I. As I thought would happen, I had no interest in the next season. I tried, but without that pull of a guy to root for I couldn’t get into it. When I found out that Lawrence Taylor was going to be on the show I was thrilled. I was born in Queens NY, and the Giants were my first team. I thought I could capture that fun again, sadly it isn’t going to happen. Lawrence Taylor is no Emmitt. He is bad, really bad. He will be gone 2nd or 3rd week for sure. They only way he stays is if they rig it to keep guys like me watching. I have a passing interest in David Alan Grier, but not enough to keep me watching. Maybe the first week was a fluke and LT actually does have some hidden skills. Nah… He is terrible.
